I was wondering if anyone knew the rate of weight loss in women with PCOS compared to other women without PCOS. How much weight to you normally lose in a week? What are your struggles with lap band and PCOS?

I use stevia. I have it in my garden. It is beneficial http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/stevia/

Not pleasant. A great negative reinforcement.

Yes Amazon 13 that is correct

I have had coffee all along also. I have expresso with milk and stevia. ; ) Sometimes just black.

I hate asking but does anyone else have constipation? I have been on the 1000 calorie diet for 2 weeks and last 4 days I have not gone to bathroom. I don't eat a lot bread products because of my Celiac. I have taken 2 rounds of laxative. I also tried Metamucil. But it says gluten free. But it is 20 ppm. Anyone have some advise. Thanks!

Yes that is what the nutrionist said.

I can not eat white meat. It gets stuck every time. Pork also. It is to dry.

I uploaded a diet the gave me. It is 1000. http://www.webdesign-ok.com/SampleDiet.html

Thanks for all the info. I had some magnesium and it worked.

I have been post op for about year. Lost 47 gained 20 back. Time to adjust to all the things I was diagnosed with. ; ) I went saw my nutritionist and she gave me a 1000 calorie diet and she just replaced the bread in the morning with GF bread. She did say something about chia seed. They are kinda expensive. But I guess I need to break down and get them and eat more salads. I am still losing weight. 8 pounds in 2 weeks. Thanks ladies, Benefiber has gluten

The water bottle is really coo! I have hard time getting water in. Because I have to eat every two hours. No liquid 30 min before and 10 after. Good luck on your weight loss!

I know how you feel. I posted I'm back about a week ago. I have been eating the what I am suppose to. It is hard for about a week now. I was so pumped because I was losing weight and today all of the sudden I feel a little down. We have about the same weight to lose. I have celiac and PCOS. Dietery restriction make it harder. I wish all the luck.
